Scalia Dumps His Girl
(Jan's in deep doo-doo again)

Scalia's girl thought she'd done pretty good.
Thought she had done exactly what her boss wanted.
Again she had done whatever she could.
What does it take not to be reverse commandanted?

But Scalia still did it. He stunned Arizona,
Stiking down Jan's overly restrictive voting rights law.
It's back to the drawing board for diehard conservatives
While liberals are delighted the current law has a flaw.

Some restrictions are fine, but the Feds won't buy them all
States don't have the right to borrow from ALEC and tackle it solo
Even a do-nothing Congress like McConnell's and Boehner's,
According to Scalia, will have the final say-so.

So Jan Brewer's rebuffed. What will she do?
Does she have the balls to continue?
Opinions are mixed regarding her nerve, and yet,
There must be a limit to the restarts she'll get.

Jan Brewer is angry. So what else is new?
Not just disappointed. She's been through all that,
But it makes a person wonder what in hell it would take –
How many more dumpings till she throws in the hat,

Her Sheriff is crumbling. He took things too far.
Must you impeach a governor? In Texas they'd feather and tar.
Is she a southwestern Bachmann in over her head
Or a female Rush Limbaugh who always sees red?
